ManyCam Effects<\/strong><\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Category: Full Screen Effects<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The full screen effects can help you \u201cset the stage\u201d according to your live streaming content or video call. They include overlays, which cover the entire screen, borders and backgrounds.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Overlays<\/strong><\/h3>\n

An overlay can be used before you go live or during intermission to give your live streaming event a professional look. The overlay could also be used at the end, with your contact information on it. Or you can put your social media handles for your viewers to find you online.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can create your own overlays<\/a><\/span>\u00a0and upload to ManyCam to use it whenever you need. It can be a simple image that represents you and your event, with a short message such as \u201cWe will be back shortly, stay tuned\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Borders<\/strong><\/h3>\n

There are over a thousand borders available for download on our Effects Page<\/a> w<\/span>ith them, you can put a creative spin on your video calls. It\u2019s especially handy if you are talking to kids and need to retain their attention.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you are producing a professional live stream, you can create a border with your company\u2019s logo and important information about the event. When viewers tune in to your live streaming they will already learn what they need to know about your live stream. Also, your brand will be memorable to them.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Backgrounds<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Since many people have trouble finding a place to go live with an appropriate setting, we added various background options to the ManyCam effects page<\/a><\/span>. Just like the overlays and borders, feel free to create your own effects<\/a>, too.<\/span><\/p>\n

The backgrounds are usually applied with the Chroma Key<\/a> function<\/span>, and it works best if you have a green or blue screen to place behind you. Nowadays, there are many affordable options out there.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Category: Objects<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The objects are placed on top of your scene, so you can create a more engaging and interesting experience to your viewers. They can be static images or animated gifs.<\/span><\/p>\n

On our website<\/a><\/span>, you will find more than 4 thousand different objects, including emoticons and speech bubbles.<\/span><\/p>\n

Many online teachers use objects to create interactive and fun classes for their students. It\u2019s a powerful tool to retain your students\u2019 attention, such as Teacher Elly does:<\/span><\/p>\n
